Amazing Hoi An Culture tour - It was a lot of fun making the lanterns. The instructions were given clearly and the end result is beautiful. After that, we received amazing local dishes and were able to take a break before going into the coconut boat during sunset. The people here are very kind and attentive.

Viet Nam on the scoresheet! - I spent 20 to 30 minutes on a coconut board and the landscape was unshakable and fun with the feeling of The Vietnam! Crab fishing is just a bonus All five lunch items are very delicious

Fantastic fun adventure! - The whole tour was fantastic, the lantern making was very fun and you’re able to take the lantern home with you. You then go to the coconut forest where you go in a basket boat which is so fun, the guide for this was helpful and funny. Following this you return to the home and have a Vietnamese meal which was the best we have eaten this trip! Very authentic and yummy! Cannot recommend this tour enough!

Excellent tour - This specific tour was amazing! The lantern making was beautiful, taking time to make sure our lanterns turned out well and were able to be taken home. The bamboo boats were enjoyable (and being a larger person fit 2 of us easily) with the opportunity to catch crabs and see the spinning boats. We returned to the house and the food was sublime! Very flavourful and traditional to Hoi An
